Handsome Hound is a
folk rock band formed in 2015 by Cuchulain Kelly and Claire Daviss in
Washington, DC. The band is rounded out by Allison Rosenberg on
trumpet, Andrew Northcutt on drums and percussion, and Ben Schifman on
bass guitar. Their lyric-driven music has its roots in folk, rock, pop,
americana, country, and bluegrass - think Johnny & June Carter
Cash meet Shovels & Rope. In March 2016, the band released its
debut EP, I Guess We're Doing Alright, which was
described as "the musical version of 60 mg of Prozac" by WAMU's
Bandwidth. Handsome Hound brings the same level of energy to shows,
leading to a rapidly growing following in the DC area.
